Dictionary of Christianity and Science
So the resource shipped this morning, and I've been waiting for it. I'm happy that it's there now, but I'm also mildly disappointed.
Just as in the Exegetical Summaries series, tagging is incomplete:

References and recommended readings are not linked to Logos resources, but just tagged with bibliographic information.
It clearly does not fulfil the advertising claim: "Important terms link to dictionaries, encyclopedias, and a wealth of other resources in your digital library."

I have been saying for many years FL marketing does not match reality. Your post does not surprise me in the least.

This is only getting worse.

FL is biting on more than they can chew. They themselves have admitted to releasing resources so you can read them now but they can fix the tagging later. Sometimes later never comes or comes too later (months, years) after a resource has shipped. Meanwhile we have to pay for the "tagging and value added" because is sold under the "Logos brand." Why is Logos doing this? It's like taking our money for a Logos resource but selling us a Vyrso version in everything. Maybe vyrso was a cover up for these type of errors that will get "fixed later." Kind of disappointing after all these years of dealing with the same issue.

The pre pub was actually only about $3.70 more expensive than the Kindle price, so I don't think I've actually paid that much for tagging.
Most dictionaries and encyclopedias don't have properly tagged references. I wonder how FL wants to ever catch up on the work.

I have been saying for a long time FL has a problem with their marketing not matching the reality of what they deliver and normally get beratted by a forum MVP or FL devotee. Now a number of you are starting to see the tip of the iceberg I have been calling out for a long time.
